When he started to dive in the ocean depths remember that he was disappointed. All that talent, Aliens, Terminator II, Abyss, Titanic ... wasted documentary on deep sea. And yet. Rather not being able to explore the cosmos had directed his attention to places still considered aliens, the majority of human beings. Including scientists.
He too has matured along. He knows what he wants his audience and knows what he wants from his visions ... to aspire to success, of course. That's why he waited nearly 15 years to put on the project Avatar, wanted to reach a new and higher level of spectacle. Let me explain.
I state that I am speaking as a fan of science fiction, books, and obviously a fiction that has a certain taste, a certain quality. When you go on the classic and the author's particular talents, each player draws the narrative elements to create and give shape in his head, the world and the environments in which the adventure is taking place (so much so avidly absorbed from the pages of the book). There are authors who know how to describe in detail their work and almost certainly the same book, each player builds in his mind a unique universe, different from the others, but always in tune with the narration.
James Cameron was able to give life, color, light and practical expression to these universes, narrated on paper for over a century. Not that they missed the last half century, the ability to exploit the various special effects. A great example was the saga of Star Wars or Alien, but in any case it was to adapt the environment to the actors, which are as much land can be. The sets have, however, the limits of the studios and heavy makeup, and can only go in one direction only, ie, add false material to a human body. There are many other avenues, lose weight or stretch has always been an expedient very little effect until the appearance of the first special effects in computer graphics. But there, too. Someone said, more or less, that: "In the three-dimensional graphics as you try to get a realistic expectation (but still obviously fake), most viewers look for points of contact to the actual. But the more realistic graphics become the spectator tries to discover the defect to "hold up" fiction. Agree with me, which is not an easy job.
In London, English is one thing, my English is definitely not very good, but the English cast ... is quite different. Anyway, I'm pretty sure I can say that in AVATAR the dialogues are a lean figure, it would seem very poor in content (but I expect the theatrical release in Italy). Cameron clearly focused in its vision to build a world that only the authors of the books could imagine ... was make choices.
I was taking risks with IMAX (only in 2009, the IMAX 3D cinemas in the U.S. have begun to gradually replace the traditional 2D ones) and the new shooting technique already posed some questions about the success of expensive film, which Cameron could not skip putting on the scale too introspective and witty dialogue by bringing out the magnificence of the world he imagined. With an odd comparison you could say that the movie hits the 3D reality all the films discussed so far, but as talks remained at the 2-D films.
And so he used the classic ingredients:
-
the bad - the good
- and love
From this point Cameron's view did not invent anything. But even in this case we must have the ability to know in order mix wise, these three ingredients as old as the cuckoo. And although his main target was the real representation of a dream world, they did it anyway heart.
Sam Worthington is able to make his contribution, providing the heart and soul into his character, especially during its expression in the dual form Avatar. Zoe Saldana leads to fighting Neytiri his experience as a dancer, giving it elegant movements, dexterity and femininity. Sigourney Weaver portrays Dr. Grace Augustine, a character that I think would need more space, because one can see considerable potential. As well as the brackets Michelle Rodriguez, whose character is sacrificed and no one above you think about it too. But it seems clear that failing to provide a tome of 1000 pages, James could not do much more with 2 hours and 40 min. But I bet its good nose for business-man will bring a lot of new scenes, in an expensive BluRay DVD box set. The plot
perhaps onsite is a bit 'too full of stereotypes. Besides the three main ingredients, has the land hungry who do not care about anything destroying the environment, nature, completely blinded by the search for precious ore. The natives already named Na'vi very reminiscent of the American Indian pioneering the epic, such as first cousins \u200b\u200bterrestrial risk of being misunderstood and then swallowed up and destroyed. A forest reminiscent of the Amazon and the use of aircraft with vertical takeoff point out both the Vietnamese jungle on helicopters. Here too, to take root there must have been calls on the public "land" family to soothe the viewer, while still in his mouth with his eyes glued to the screen. However, despite these plates and the length of about 2 hours and 40 minutes, the film runs just fine.
The forest moon of Pandora, one of the many moons of the planet Polyphemus is located in the Alpha Centauri binary system (binary because instead of having only one Sun has two). Alpha Centauri really exists and is absolutely the system with two stars closest to us, only 4 light-years. Nonsense when it comes to distances between stars. What is still to this day do not know if these two stars and there are planets at the right distance to be considered suitable to sustain life. But this is something that in the next two or three years we know. At the end of 2009 was in fact launched a sophisticated and sensitive infrared telescope that will tell if the system Alpha Centauri (but not only there) there are, besides the two Suns, even when some planet that still do not see (and is not easy to see if it does not reflect light or create other problems). But this is reality, back science fiction.
moons knew only the forested moon of Endor in Star Wars George Lucas, but despite all the goodwill he had not yet the "means" to go beyond the traditional setting and a few other special effects of his Industrial Light & Magic. Think it took Peter Jackson's King Kong for her to squirm Cameron and let him say: "Here we are! It 's time."
Obviously, that was just the starting point, James had to put something else.

Pandora is the best representation that could dive in and gloat any exobiologist: flora phosphorescent during the night, lava lamps and glow effects when you step on the grass of the ground. A world which has a magnetic vortex in a particular area of \u200b\u200bthe planetoid floating in the air that causes the whole mountains of strongly magnetized, covered with vegetation and waterfalls that fall into the void to reach the surface. A world where the natives live in symbiosis with the ability to be able to "connect" to every Pandora. All animal life has two special appendices and the same native Na'vi have a long braid that conceals a kind of nerve fibers with which they can literally relate to some animals as well as to plant life. A sort of network staff, a bit 'as our myth Gaia, which is based on the assumption that the oceans, seas, atmosphere, crust and all other geophysical components of the Earth are kept in suitable conditions for the presence of life, thanks to the behavior of animal life to plant . Pandora goes well, it's almost a living organism, primordial, which maintains the harmony and natural balance of flora and fauna.
Reality recreated by AVATAR easily reach 99% of realism, and should, quite simply, seen in IMAX 3D technology. Here, however, touched a sore spot: The IMAX 3D equipment costs much more, but still a fact that in Italy we have one single room, when in Europe the numbers are greater than the single unit.
However, history has so many possibilities for development and deepening, if that was already there by Cameron half a mind to start a franchise now, after the movie in the first 17 days has reached a big box office successes (1) billion dollars, compared to a charge of 300 million, I believe that the possibility of a sequel is even closer.
Let's just hope not to wait another 12 years.
